Terms of service.

We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

Aqala is a faith-based platform providing real-time Quran translation and transliteration, prayer times and Qibla direction, live audio rooms for Islamic learning, social features, and direct messaging.

Translations and transliterations are generated using automated speech-to-text technology and may not be perfectly accurate. They are provided as a learning aid and should not be treated as authoritative religious rulings or a replacement for qualified scholarly guidance.

You must be at least 13 years old to create an account. By creating an account, you represent that you meet this age requirement.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. Notify us immediately if you suspect unauthorized access.

The Service, including its design, features, and content (excluding user-generated content), is owned by Aqala and protected by intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works based on the Service without our written permission.

Aqala provides tools for accessing and understanding religious content. Automated translations, transliterations, and verse identifications are provided as-is and may contain inaccuracies.

The Service should not be used as the sole basis for religious rulings (fatwa), legal decisions, or medical advice. Users are encouraged to consult qualified scholars and professionals for authoritative guidance.

Aqala does not endorse or take responsibility for views expressed by users in rooms, chats, or any other user-generated content.

The Service is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Aqala shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Service.

Upon termination, your right to use the Service will immediately cease. Data deletion will follow the procedures outlined in our Privacy Policy.

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Australia, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any disputes arising from these Terms will be resolved in the courts of Australia.
